This species has been hormone bred
by Slovakian aquarist Petre Posel in 1994. Aquarium Care:
Synodontis flavitaeniatus is basically an easy species
to keep as it won't uproot your plants and as such can be kept
in a planted aquarium. They are not aggressive so you can keep
a few of them in a large community tank along with larger tetras
such as the Congo Tetra from the same continent. As with all members
of this family they can be territorial so must give them places
to hide during the day such as rockwork, plants, pipes or driftwood,
then you will see them venturing out during the day for sorties,
but they do tend to be a little secretive for such a beautiful
species. Diet: As with most members of this genus
it will eat most foods such as good quality flake food, tablets,
white worm, pellets and frozen food such as bloodworm.
